Rose of the World Synopsis
When rich Jack Talbot falls in love with not-rich Rose Kirby, he doesn't marry her, fearing his mother's disapproval. Rose later marries Clyde Bainbridge, a rotter who knows that under the terms of a secret contract, Rose will inherit the Talbot iron-works. Rose finds the contract but, mistrusting her husband, does not make use of it. Talbot marries a vamp, who later dies in childbirth. Clyde is accidentally killed by Rose's demented grandfather. Rose and Talbot then return to each other, finding together a long-delayed happiness.
Brown of Harvard Synopsis
Tom Brown shows up at Harvard, confident and a bit arrogant. He becomes a rival of Bob McAndrew, not only in football and rowing crew, but also for the affections of Mary Abbott, a professor's daughter.
"Rose of the World" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Brown of Harvard" offers its own unique cult appeal.
